How can I run my app compiled in Xcode 7.3.1 on the iOS 10 Simulator

Question

So, because of all the naming changes my current project doesn't run on Xcode 8 beta and has lots of compilation errors that I cannot easily get rid of.

Is there a way to at least run a compiled version that was made in XCode 7.3.1 on the iOS10 Simulator?

Answer 1

The trick is to create a symbolic link the DeviceSupport folder from the beta to the stable version

From terminal

ln -s /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/10.0\ \(14A5261u\) /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport
